Vitamin c is one of the most in-demand supplements and reliable defense against covid-19 nowadays. this covalent compound has a molecular formula c6h8o6.how many moles of vitamin c did you consume if your intake is 0.0250g? (atomic weight : c= 12.01,h=1.00. 0= 16.00)

Sagot :

SOLUTION:

Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of vitamin C.

[tex]\begin{aligned} \text{molar mass} & = \text{6(12.01 g) + 8(1.00 g) + 6(16.00 g)} \\ & = \text{176.06 g} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of vitamin C by using dimensional analysis.

[tex]\begin{aligned} \text{moles of} \: \text{C}_6\text{H}_8\text{O}_6 & = \text{0.0250 g} \: \text{C}_6\text{H}_8\text{O}_6 \times \frac{\text{1 mol} \: \text{C}_6\text{H}_8\text{O}_6}{\text{176.06 g} \: \text{C}_6\text{H}_8\text{O}_6} \\ & = \boxed{\text{0.000142 mol}} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, there are 0.000142 mol in 0.0250 g of vitamin C.
